Among them, Dacheng has a circumference of twelve and a half miles and is also the largest city in the Jianghuai region.
When you come to Xiapi, you have to talk about Luo Dahuang. In "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Xuzhou and Xiapi were divided into two parts, so that Cao Peng initially thought that there was really a city named Xuzhou under Xuzhou's rule, which was located in Xiapi.
Next to Pi. Without you seeing it, Liu Bei was guarding Xuzhou and Guan Gong was stationed in Xia Pi. At that time, Cao Peng was still a little confused: Liu Bei didn't keep his wife and children by his side, so why did he throw them into Xia Pi? Now he understands
Well, Luo Da’s geographical knowledge does not seem to be particularly accurate...
Cao Peng entered Xiapi City from the south gate.
While riding on the horse, he looked around curiously, trying to find the legendary White Gate Tower.
However, the gray-black city wall disappointed him in the end!
It is winter and the temperature is low.
However, since Lu Bu returned in triumph, officials from Guangling and other places in Xiapi came in person or sent people to congratulate him.
Cao Peng and his party entered Xiapi City without much effort.
But after entering the city, Cao Peng was a little at a loss.
Xiapi County is the seat of the Xuzhou government, and it is also the capital of Xiapi State. Its scale is even greater than that of Xudu.
Spacious streets, lined with shops and merchants.
Cao Peng was stunned!
He didn't know what to do next.
It was also the negligence of Puyang Kai and Bu Zhi. They both thought that Cao Peng should understand the rules here.
"Second brother, where should we go first?"
Xu Yi also looked at the bustling street with dark eyes, and it took a long time before she answered: "How about we go to eat first?"
It was almost noon. Cao Peng and others had been rushing all the way, and they were also a little hungry.
After thinking about it, I felt that Xu Yi's suggestion was good. So the group of people drove towards the city, looking around in both directions as they walked.
"The cars and horses ahead, stop!"
After turning around a street, I suddenly heard someone shouting from behind me.
Cao Peng reined in his horse and turned to look behind him, only to see a group of cavalry charging over in a show of force.
There were about thirty or forty people in the cavalry, led by three cavalry generals. One of them was about 180cm tall when he jumped off his horse, and he looked like he had some barbaric ancestry. On both sides of him, one was tall and thin, and the other was slightly taller.
Short and fat. The tall and thin one among them seemed familiar to Cao Peng, but he couldn't remember where he had seen them before. These three men rushed over with the cavalry and blocked Cao Peng's carriage.
"Wait, who is it?"
The cavalry commander in the center shouted sternly.
His words were very rude, just like a superior scolding his subordinates.
Xu Yi was furious when he heard this and rushed forward to argue.
Cao Peng frowned, grabbed Xu Yi, looked at him up and down, and then replied warmly: "I am a military officer in Haixi County. I heard that General Zuo was victorious and triumphant, so I came to congratulate you. I don't know who the three generals are."
What's the matter? Why are you blocking my way?"
He could tell that the identities of these three people should be unusual.
If it were in Haixi, Cao Peng wouldn't be afraid.
But this is Xiapi City, not his territory. Cao Peng didn't want to cause trouble in Xiapi, so he was very polite in his words.
"Haisi?"
The knight in the middle looked confused and turned to ask the people around him.
"Haixi is under the rule of Guangling, but no officials have been appointed for a long time... Oh, I remembered. There seemed to be an edict before appointing a guy named Deng as the order of Haixi." The short and fat man showed contempt.
, looked Cao Peng and others up and down, "People often say that Duke Cao is very impressive, but in my opinion, he is nothing more than that. Is there no one around him? He actually sent a group of children to take office."
"Haixiling is such a big arrogant person that he actually sent a little baby over."
The cavalry commander in the middle sneered, seeming to have no regard for Cao Peng and others.
The tall and thin man suddenly said: "Why do Ziliang need to talk so much with these people? Get down to business quickly, we still have things to do."
Ziliang is the cavalry commander in the middle.
He nodded and said solemnly: "Little baby, a certain family is Hou Cheng, the captain of the riding command under Marquis Wen. He is here to recruit Pier and other mounts. Dismount immediately."
Only then did Cao Peng understand that these people had taken a fancy to his mount.
His Zhaoyebai, Xu Yi's black dragon, and Noriman's mount are not just ordinary war horses. Needless to say, Zhaoyebai and Heilong, dragons and horses from the Western Regions are hard to find; even Noianman's horse
, is also extraordinary, it is a serious Dawan horse.
Xu Yi couldn't bear it any longer and yelled: "You dog thieves, how dare you steal a horse?"
"You bastard, this general wants your horse to give you face. Come down quickly if you know what's going on, otherwise don't blame me for being rude to you."
Wait, wait!
Hou Cheng......
One of the eight great generals of Lu Bu.
Cao Peng finally remembered what Hou Cheng was.
The tall and thin man called him Ziliang just now, but Cao Peng didn't pay attention yet.
But when it comes to the name Hou Cheng, Cao Peng reacts. In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, it seems that it was this guy who turned against Lu Bu in the end...
Hou Cheng also just returned to Xiapi, and before his buttocks were even hot, he was ordered to go out to do something, and he felt a little unhappy.
So he called his friends Song Xian and Wei Xu and prepared to go together. Unexpectedly, before he left the city, he happened to see Cao Peng and his party passing by. Hou Cheng was Lu Bu's cavalry captain and was good at riding horses. So he knew it at a glance.
It can be seen that the mounts of Cao Peng and the others are unusual.
Originally, he thought he was a member of some aristocratic family.
However, Wei Xu felt that Cao Peng looked familiar...
Earlier, he and Chen Deng went to Xudu to visit Cao Cao, hoping to ask Lu Bu for the post of Xuzhou Shepherd. At the Yuxiu Tower, he met Cao Peng and Cao Zhen, and even almost caused a conflict. At that time, Chen Deng was in charge
He stopped him, so he didn't cause trouble. However, Wei Xu remembered Cao Peng's appearance. Especially when Lu Bu failed to ask Xuzhou to be a pastor, he instead granted Chen Deng the position of Guangling prefect. After returning to Xiapi,
Wei Xu was scolded by Lu Bu. When he saw Cao Peng, Wei Xu immediately felt resentment in his heart.
Of course, Wei Xu would not tell Hou Cheng the identity of Cao Peng.
Just encourage him to intercept.
Hou Cheng was also a bad guy. When he heard that Cao Peng was just a soldier in Haixi, he no longer cared about him.
The dispute between the two parties immediately attracted the attention of the people around them. A handsome face peeked out from the window of a restaurant on the corner of the street.
A young general poked his head out and frowned, "Why is it so noisy?"
Next to him was a girl who looked like a maid, about ten years old. She glanced downstairs and said softly: "Little... General, it seems that General Hou and the others are bullying people.
"
She was glared at by the young general and immediately changed her title.
The young general Yao twisted his nose and said, "Hou Cheng and the others have gone too far... No, I want to teach them a lesson."
"Little...general, please don't cause any trouble.
Don't forget, you sneaked out secretly. If the ladies know that you came out secretly, you won't be able to come out again in the future."
"Sister Qier!"
The young general looked charming and naive.
The little maid's face fell, she shook her head and said: "I don't care about these things. The young lady just wants me to take good care of you, I don't care about other things."
"You..." The young general paused, "Then I'll go down."
"If you go down, don't let me go out with you in the future."
The little maid's tone was not polite at all.
The young general bit his red lips lightly and looked at the little maid angrily, but he seemed to have no way to do anything to her.
At this time, another accident happened downstairs.
Hou Chengheng, Ke Xuyi or Dianman, which one is not horizontal?
Xu Yi cursed loudly, causing a lot of discussion around him.
Hou Cheng suddenly became angry...
In Xiapi, Hou Cheng was scolded by only one person, and that was Lu Bu.
I thought I could capture the three horses easily, but I didn't expect the little guys on the opposite side to be so ignorant!
What the Marquis wants from you is to give you face.
Since you are seeking death, don't blame Mr. Hou for being rude and bullying the younger ones.
"Little baby, you are so arrogant... Come on, come on, today the Marquis will teach you a lesson on behalf of your family."
As he spoke, Hou Cheng picked up a spear and galloped out.
Cao Peng wanted to stop him, but before he could take action, Xu Yi rushed over.
In his palm is a nine-foot sword, which weighs more than forty kilograms. This sword is different from ordinary swords. The handle is about two feet long, and the blade is seven feet long. It is wider and thicker than ordinary swords...
…The knife pattern on the edge of the knife is shining, the knife is radiating with light, and the cold air is overwhelming.
Xu Yi held the knife in both hands, and the reins were hung on her arms.
The black dragon seemed to sense its master's fighting spirit, and it suddenly hissed with excitement and rushed out.
When he saw Xu Yi holding the knife with both hands, Hou Cheng was actually happy!
How is it possible to hold the sword with both hands in this riding battle? If you hold the sword with both hands, how can you control the horse, how can you maintain its strength, and how can you sit firmly?
He roared loudly and struck with his spear when he was distracted.
Unexpectedly, Xu Yi didn't dodge and just cut with the wheel knife.
There was only a loud bang and the clash of swords and spears, but Xu Yi remained motionless on his horse.
But Hou Cheng felt a huge force coming from the sword, almost letting go of his spear.
This baby is so powerful! Hou Cheng's face turned red and his heart became even more angry. If he just wanted to teach Xu Yi a lesson just now, then now, murderous intent was born in his heart. He turned the horse's head, the spear flew, and the gun shadow was longing.
.However, Xu Yi is a newborn calf and is not afraid of tigers. Seeing Hou Cheng coming to kill him, he felt more excited. He knocked the horse's belly with his feet, Xu Yi let out a tiger roar, and the wheel knife came up.
The big sword turned into a cloud of swords and struck Hou Cheng together.
Speaking of which, Hou Cheng is just a second-rate general.
Although Xu Yi is younger than him, in terms of talent, she is much stronger than Hou Cheng.
In addition, he has reached the level of Yijin, and his strength has become more and more tyrannical with the deepening of his skills. He opened a big sword and looked like Xu Chu's posture. He roared like a tiger again and again, and fought with Hou Cheng, with swords and guns.
In the past, they were evenly matched for a while...
Wei Xu initially thought that with Hou Cheng's ability, Cao Peng and others would be able to capture him.
Unexpectedly, during this fight, Hou Cheng was found to be unable to defeat Xu Yi. More and more onlookers on the street were pointing at Wei Xu and the others.
Wei Xu's face was a little confused!
Hou Ziliang, Hou Ziliang, you are still known as the eight-strong general, but you can't even take care of a little baby.
He gritted his teeth, took off his sword, and rushed out on horseback, "Ziliang, let me help you!"
There was an uproar on the long street.
The young general who was watching the battle in the restaurant even stamped his feet repeatedly, "Uncle Wei really doesn't want to be shy. It's enough to use the big to bully the small. Instead, he bullies the small with the more."
The little maid next to him glanced at him, but made no sign.
When Dianman saw Wei Xu coming up, how could he stand aside and do nothing?
Even though he and Xu Yi quarreled every day, when something happened, he didn't hesitate at all.
"A dog thief, do you want to bully the minority? Your Dianye is here."
As he spoke, he pulled out his two halberds and urged his horse to stop Wei Xu.
The two iron halberds were crossed, dodging Wei Xu's broadsword. One hand's iron halberd suddenly took off his hand, and the two iron halberds clasped together, and they were thrown out. Wei Xu screamed in fright, and hurriedly fell on the ground.
The horse was barely able to escape. After the two horses crossed each other, Dianman had withdrawn his iron halberd and grinned, "Thief, come here, let your master Dian see how much you weigh..."
The two iron halberds were spread out, and the horse was urged to mount.
Wei Xu could only muster up his energy at this time and stood with Dianman.
Song Xian could only look dumbfounded.
Wei Xu and Hou Cheng's martial arts skills are not bad, but they were stopped by two little kids, and they couldn't tell the difference between them?
As soon as he rolled his eyes, he saw Cao Peng. Compared with Dian Man and Xu Yi, who were tall and muscular, Cao Peng looked very thin.
Let’s take this guy down first!
Song Xian thought of this, jumped on his horse and rushed out with his gun.
Cao Peng held the reins with one hand and the handle of the sword with the other, watching the battle.
Suddenly I heard a voice calling from upstairs: "Hey, be careful!"
Cao Peng turned around and saw Song Xian coming toward him, baring his teeth and claws. Cao Peng frowned and knew what happened today, and he might not be able to do anything good.
What about the eight-strong general?
I am still Xiaobayi...
He didn't even bother to look towards the restaurant, urged his horse and rushed towards Song Xian.
Both feet are buckled in the stirrups, and the body sinks slightly, forming an arch shape, sticking to the horse's back. One hand holds the reins, and the other rests on the handle of the knife.
Seeing that Song Xian is getting closer and closer...
However, Cao Peng didn't come out for a long time.
The young general in the restaurant clenched his little hands into fists. He stood up involuntarily and pressed against the window. He bit his lips and kept muttering: "Why don't you draw your sword? Why don't you draw your sword..."
At this moment, Cao Peng and Song Xian were about to take a photo.
Song Xian thought to himself: Is this guy scared out of his wits? Hey, that's fine, you can give me a good horse for free.
He was thinking in his mind that with a twist of the spear in his hand and a loud roar, he was about to stab Cao Peng to death on his horse. But just when he was about to let out a loud roar, Zhao Yebai suddenly accelerated and shouted.
He rushed out a horse's head away. Don't underestimate the distance between a horse's head. On the battlefield, it can often determine the life or death of both parties. Zhao Yebai's acceleration not only caused Song Xian's mount to lose its frequency, but even
The rhythm of his shooting was suddenly interrupted. While Song Xian was stunned, Cao Peng stood up on his horse.
The sword was drawn out with a roar, as fast as lightning.
Cao Peng's use of this broadsword is quite strange.
He is not like Xu Yi's wide-opening and wide-closing swordsmanship, nor is he the kind of light and agile swordsmanship. The distance he cuts is not very long or very large, but the speed of the sword is very fast and very sharp. In many cases,
When a person makes one slash, he can often make dozens of slashes.
Ding ding ding…
The sound of the blade hitting the gun barrel was like rain hitting banana trees.
It seems to be very crisp and without much force.
But when Cao Peng and Song Xian passed by the wrong horse and turned the horse's head, people unexpectedly discovered that Song Xian's face turned red...
It was not a normal red, but a bright red that was almost pathological.
Song Xian felt that Cao Peng's sword contained countless strange powers.
Some went straight, some criss-crossed, some fast, some slow, some seemed powerless, and seemed to weigh more than a thousand kilograms. He tried his best to steady his mount, and his arms almost lost consciousness. He raised his head and looked at Cao Peng. Cao Peng looked at Cao Peng.
Peng didn't seem to have changed much from before, except that his face turned slightly pale.
This kid is so weird!
But in this situation, Song Xian had no way out.
On the other two sides, Xu Yi and Hou Cheng were fighting inextricably; Dian Man and Wei Xu were fighting hard, but they had the upper hand, suppressing Wei Xu and fighting until Wei Xu could no longer resist.
"Asshole, are you just watching the fun? Why don't you fuck me?"
Song Xian yelled, but he was yelling at the group of followers behind Hou Cheng.
The followers just woke up from a dream, and rushed towards Cao Peng with roars. However, before Cao Peng could take action, Dian Man and Xu Yi's followers couldn't bear it any longer.
The retinues stopped them. The two sides fought against each other, and the generals were attacked in one place. For a while, the long street became chaotic. People shouted, horses neighed, and weapons shouted, and they were mixed together, making it a chaotic mess.
In the restaurant, the young general was very excited and kept waving his little fists.
"Fight, fight, fight..."
That posture made him wish he could participate in it. But he also knew that it was impossible, because the little maid was watching him warily...
When Cao Peng saw this situation, he knew that today was a good day.
Now that you’ve fought, let’s fight!
"General, why do you stop and don't move forward?
I benefited a lot from the fight just now, so why don't you let me learn your clever tricks again."
Cao Peng saw what Song Xian was thinking. This guy wanted to disrupt the war. If he disrupted the war, he would disrupt the war. Anyway, I just need to keep an eye on you.
Two groups of people were fighting in the middle, with Cao Peng and Song Xian on either side of the two groups.
The two looked at each other, leaped out of their horses at the same time, and broke into the crowd. A servant of Hou Cheng stopped Cao Peng, trying to grab his legs and pull him off the horse. Unexpectedly, Cao Peng turned slightly to one side.
, raised his foot and kicked the servant in the face.
There were stirrups on his feet, and he kicked the opponent's face with blood in just one blow.
Zhao Yebai seemed to have gone crazy, kicking and kicking in the crowd, and in the blink of an eye he was in front of Song Xian.
Cao Peng slashed with his sword, and Song Xian raised his gun to meet him. The two men were on horseback, swords and guns going back and forth, and they fought for more than ten rounds in the blink of an eye. Cao Peng was not as strong as Song Xian in terms of gunpowder, but the lines condensed on his sword
An Jin made Song Xian extremely painful and complained endlessly...
"Stop, stop everyone!"
At this moment, the end of the long street was filled with people.
A group of iron cavalry galloped from a distance like lightning.
In the middle, there is a general with a red rabbit hissing wind beast on his crotch and a halberd painted in the sky in his palm. He wears a hundred-flower war robe on his waist, wears Tang Ni treasure armor, wears a big red cloak, and two fiery red chicken feathers rise to the sky, like
Like a ball of flame, he rushed to the front.
"Stop it all!"
That ball of flames rolled in and roared like a huge thunder, exploding over the long street...
